I’m looking for 50 lbs compression to use on a cheese press.** A: I do not know the exact amount of pressure required to compress the spring but I do know that it isn’t 50 pounds. I would estimate it as closer to 2-3 pounds. I used mine on a washing machine start button that is plastic—so it is a very light spring. **Q: I want to make costume antennae. Will these work? I want them to bounce about supporting styrofoam balls at the end to wiggle.** A: This would work fine for that. not too stiff... In my opinion **Q: What is the spring constant?** A: Quoting the max safe work load doesn't answer the question and is not helpful to you customers. I have the same question: What is the spring constant? So, in the interest of trying to be helpful I'll offer this: Spring force is measure by a formula F=kX where K is the spring constant. The force pressure of the spring is equal to it's constant times the amount you compress it. If the constant K is 1lb/inch compressing it 3" will cause it to resist the compression with 3lbs of force. This formula is basic engineering 101, is useful for a specified amount of compression or extension (yes, you can overdo it), and useful for both compression and extraction springs. So knowing this you can easily determine the K value for your customers. I am looking for a spring roughly 4" long, 1/2" inside diameter and a spring constant of 8oz/inch. **Q: I'm looking for springs to hang lightweight bouncing toys. Would something like this work?** A: The spring can support a maximum safe load of 4.82lbs. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by G***L on 1 August 2021* I use these in my cheese press.
